Based on research into the chemical link between deposited and surface atoms, a model for the long-range influence in crystal formation
processes via boundary layers is put forth. The distribution of the density, or likelihood of finding a negative binding charge, cannot be
regarded rigidly stable between the closest nearby ion cores, as shown. The favored routes, dictated by the electrostatic and electromagnetic
fields of atomic cores and their valence electrons, also extend to other interatomic regions, but in diminishing quantities. These crystalline
fields will penetrate the generated amorphous or polycrystalline layer to a certain thickness due to their much higher directivity and intensity
compared to the layer's own directivity. Crystallographically oriented fields will penetrate the surface of the boundary layer up to a certain
thickness, ensuring the crystallinity of the deposited material, in contrast to a clean surface where the field structure of the crystal changes due
to the absence of atoms from the surface side.
